THE NEW YORKER and subsequent divorce of a brilliant young teacher úf history, with particular reference to young love and the first year of marriage. The writing is not distinguished, but the book is a faithful picture of life in the small American town of thirty or forty years ago. WINGED VICTORY, by V. M. Yeates. War story, written in well-balanced, practiced prose, showing how much more decent and how infinitely more dangerous it was to be an aviator. Told from the point of view of a young Englishman with something of a genius for friendship, whose friends, one by one, were all killed. l\ lot of interesting ma- terial about wartime flying. Less harrowing than the mud-b100d-and-1ice books and per- meated with a kind of stern, exalted accept- ance of perilous experience. RESURRECTION, by William Gerhardi. Fiction- alized autobiography, the theme of which is that we always live in either the past or the future, hut that death is an infinite capacity for living in the present. Mr. Gerhardi be- lieves in the resurrection of the body-or at least of a simulacrum of it \vhich can pass through doors but cannot turn on switches. Colorful. but confused and turgid. Inter- spersed here and there with graceful humor and some rather sapient observation. GE.NE.R.AL PHANTOM CROWN, by Bertita Harding. The story of the hapless Maximilian of Mexico, portraying hin1 syn1pathetically as gentle, agreeable, given to self-deception, easily led, and spurred on by Carlota's fatal dynastic pride to stick to his guns when the pinchbeck Napoleon III betrayed him. Easy, intimate biography, perhaps a little over-imaginative. THE HEROIC YEARS, by Fletcher Pratt. Study of the years 1801-1815 in American history. Mr. Pratt says that this was the golden age of the intellectual oligarchy for which the Constitution was designed and which (for a while) it produced, and that the outstanding dramatic, emotional, and unifying entity which held the nation together during this period was the navy, \vhich developed under the exigencies of the British press-gang poli- cy. Written 'with a light, almost colloquial touch that is sometimes very effective. THE WORLD As I SEE IT, by Albert Einstein. Letters and speeches containing Einstein's views on pacifism and Judaism, his personal philosophy, some reflections on science and religion, and an explanation for laymen of the theory of relativity. The famous scien- tist is tolerant but never uncritical; almost inhun1anly detached and at the same time filled with a passionate sense of social re- sponsibility; slyly humorous and also des- perately serious. Written in simple, unorna- mented prose. The translation by Alan Har- ris has been very carefully done. THE SECRET KINGDOM, by Ben James. Account of a trip, largely by motor, through Afghan- istan. Interminable waiting for the simplest services, mud huts, filthy streets, polluted water; also golden, treeless mountains and the glitter of knives. Simply told, only a little romanticized, and accompanied by very illuminating photographs. SING, OLD HOUSE, by Marion Nicholl Raw- 121 . ì .h i"( ..... ;f$ ' .:.' 'î 'h ,: .:.,h:,. .
